Hazrat Abu Mulaeeh's father narrates that during the year of Hudaybiyyah or Hunayn, I was with the Prophet (peace be upon him).

During that time, it rained, but the rain was so light that the soles of our shoes did not get wet. However, a caller of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) announced that you should perform your prayers in your saddles."

Hazrat Ubaidullah says that I also saw Hazrat Qasim and Hazrat Salim praying with them in the same way.
